It's more like Zelda mixed with a brawler. I like it far more than any Zelda game but different opinions are what makes life interesting. Hope you tried it before spending money... Now go play something you do like!

Beyond Oasis

Cons:
-Most music is garbage
-game isn't very long
-dying at a boss means you restart the level

Pros:
-weapon variety
-detailed nice to look at over world
-huge fun to fight bosses
-elemental spirit friends will always be cool

It's a solid game overall. I give it a 8/10. Would be 9 but some of that dungeon music is terrible.

>>4340196
The music really is horseshit but I play most games with the music diwn or off anyways. It's worse than most but I think almost all video game music is bad.

>>4340125
>Zelda clone with weapon durability
So, a Zelda game.

>>4340125
I appreciate it for being its on take on the formula for the Sega systems. I am a fan of brawlers, so I enjoy the combat. I wouldn't recommend it to others, but I don' think of it as a bad game in any way. I like how the attack sounds like Axel from Streets of Rage. >>4340196 sums it up nicely.

>>4340125

I like King's Field better than Zelda

>>4340328
>Zelda-like
>Zelda

>>4340328
>not including the adventure of link

>>4340347
You're right, that makes no sense. Here, I think I fixed it.

>>4340375
I think 'The Twisted Adventures of Spike McFang' (SNES) could go on there too.

>>4340774
>Twisted Tales

>>4340125
COOL GAME
I ENJOY

This is pretty okay for a Dragon Slayer-like

>>4340375
I love how the Golden Axe Warrior developers were so lazy in knocking of Zelda they just shamelessly copied it's maps entirely.

>>4341162
It's a real-time rogue-like

>>4340125
It's short and the small story was further cut down in the localization, still love it for managing to play and look so good in it's times.
Shame we didn't got the sequel.

>weapon durability
>Not destroying everybody with your trusty infinite knife and having an inventory full of only bombs for pressing buttons remotely

>>4340125
Meh. It starts out as a really bad game. Then it becomes okay as you get used to how bad it is. Then it gets really bad when you realize it never gets any better.

>>4340125
i'd hardly call it dogshit, c'mon. besides, exactly how many zelda clones are on the genesis? this one annnnnnd.....toejam & earl?

>>4341608
Crusader of Centy.

>>4341608
Toejam & Earl is a roguelike, not a Zelda clone.

I've recently played the prequel on Saturn. The first one is much better

>>4340318
You write like a child, how did you never learn to write properly?

>>4340318
Do you just sit around waiting for the chance to dig your shit out to write a note?
At least you dont tripfag while doing it.

>>4340148
Did that monster just become food for them to eat?

>>4342953
Looks like it

>>4342953
Sure did! If you kill things like rats or fish with regular attacks they sometimes drop meat. If you or your elemental use fire then they drop cooked meat. It's pretty rad.

>>4343935
What about humans

Do they drop meat

Or just inedible stuff like money

Asking for a friend

It's better than Link to the Past, by far.

Also check out the Saturn sequel.

>>4343938
No money in the game, they mostly drop weapons but sometimes grapes or cheese.

>>4341180
>no perma-death
More like rouge-lite.

>>4340125
>"Mom, i want the new zelda!"
>"Ok son, i'll get you something better"

Imagine being the kid with the genesis

>/vr/ retards who don't know what roguelikes are.

Why be willfully ignorant? It has never made sense to me.

>>4343945
It's a shame it never got a port to something else. Fucking amazing game, but it's kind of forgotten due to supply and shitty Saturn emu.

>>4340774
I know I'll get shit for this, but Spike Mcfang reminds me more of Ys.
My reasoning being that it revolves far less around puzzle solving and more so on action and combat.

>>4343945
>tfw kamiomutsu doesn't do art anymore
Kill me.
>>4345329
This reminds me. I'm also buttmad about Buster (the dev, who also did two games titled Buster). Guy was rad as hell, but he seems to have vanished off the face of the earth.
Guardian of Paradise was cool and one of the better "dojin" titles I've played (but I've only played a few anyways). Hydra Castle Labyrinth was also cool.

>>4345329
>shitty Saturn emu

The fuck you're talking about, SSF is perfect.

>>4344519

>>4345617

No it isn't.

>>4345628
The compatibility is crazy high, you won't see any glitches or anything. You just mount a CD image, launch the emulator and it plays the game straight away just like it was a native PC game. Fucking amazing.

Yes, it is locked to 2x internal resolution with no shaders or filtering, but that's fucking perfect.

>>4345640

Not true. There are plenty of games that do not work.

>>4345643
Give examples or fuck off.

>>4345647

Say please.

>>4345627
Weak bait.

>>4345617
Guy who posted that here. I don't know and haven't checked. It might be good enough now but my current pc isn't the best. If it is, I am happy

>>4345669

It's mid-tier. About par with mednafen-saturn.

>>4345676
That's alright I'm waiting till it's pretty much perfect. In no rush though.

>>4345759

Saint Ryphecha does not disappoint, my child. Have faith.

>>4341162
It's certainly aged better than Dragon Slayer.

>>4345676
What's a top tier Saturn emu?

>inb4 doesn't exist

>>4345868
Thats what he was saying.

>>4345864
Everything has aged better than Dragon Slayer.

I enjoyed it for it's art style and brawling, but it got monotonous after a while and I got bored and never finished it. Soundtrack didn't help either.

>>4345613
>tfw kamiomutsu doesn't do art anymore
A damn shame, but autist artists who do the "Delet this" like her make me mad too.
It only makes me angrier that there's not even a decent alternative to get my fix on retro sega fanart.

>>4348431
Yeah I think I got to some temple that has like 3-5 switches in the starting room and just said fuck it, I'll deal with this bullshit on a later date. And then I forgot about it and lost my save. I think I was about 80% done.

Supposedly there's an awesome secret area in the game, I don't remember the conditions, but you're supposed to backtrack to one of the starting areas in the forest, there would be a hole in the ground and then you can enter some special dungeon and get the best sword in the game that does NOT degrade. Anybody been there?

>>4348490
Yeah it's basically the challenge dungeon of the game. 100 floors of enemies and completing it gets you a sword that never breaks, infinite bombs and shit
